Note to self: avoid werewolves.

And so, East Orange New Jersey police department is going to grant communities a new "community watch" program. Mat Drudge (Drudge Report) reports that a "Virtual Community Patrol" will allow selected residents to tap into the various security cameras throughout the community and report on any suspicious activity. Police will then be dispatched to such areas.

I can't even come up with a single good reason for this power, but I have a couple of reservations:
1. How are people selected? This power can be easily abused.
2. How secure is the website? Hackers abound.

Don't die.
